Access UM's Network via UMIT's Approved Remote Access Tools

As you may know, the use of remote access tools to dial in to on-campus computers poses a potential security risk to your and the University's sensitive information. Criminals and hackers often use these access tools to steal information or to mask the activity of computers infected by malware.

The following tools are UMIT-approved remote access services, which provide a more secure way to access your data from anywhere in the world:

Box – Access Your Files from Anywhere at Anytime:

Instead of saving files on your desktop computer, save them in Box so that you can securely access and share your files quickly via the cloud from any of your devices: desktop computers, laptops, tablets, smartphones, etc.

Citrix (for Clinical Systems):

If you do not have a Citrix log in enabled, please contact the UMIT Service Desk at: help@miami.edu with the subject line: "Citrix for Clinical Systems Access Request." Within the message body, please list the clinical system(s) that will be accessed via Citrix.

Submit a Remote Access Request to the UMIT Service Desk:

Some applications are only available on university-managed devices and may not be accessible outside of the UM network. If you would like to remotely host an application, please contact the UMIT Service Desk at: help@miami.edu with the subject line: "Remote Access Request."
